How to Fully Disable AI in Jetpack for WordPress

Jetpack is a powerful WordPress plugin and service offering security, performance, and site management tools. To enhance security, it provides automated backups, malware scanning, brute force attack protection, and downtime monitoring. Performance features include a CDN for images, lazy loading, and fast video hosting. Jetpack offers SEO tools, social media auto-sharing, and newsletter subscriptions for marketing. 

If you use the Jetpack plugin and service on your site but want to disable all of the AI features, you can use a code snippet.

MainWP offers an easy-to-use code snippets extension for saving and executing code snippets on all connected sites.

Luckily, Jetpack provides many actions and filters that can be used to customize and control features provided by Jetpack. You can use this code snippet to disable all of the AI features in Jetpack. Disabling AI features in Jetpack can help optimize performance, protect privacy, and maintain content authenticity. AI tools may increase server load, slowing down your WordPress site. They also process data externally, which can raise compliance concerns under GDPR or CCPA.

Additionally, relying on AI for content creation or SEO may reduce originality and brand consistency. Some AI features require a paid subscription, so disabling them helps avoid unnecessary costs. Turning off AI gives you complete control over your site’s speed, security, and user experience.
